Biography
I am a Robotic and Neuroscience researcher, with a particular interest for decision-making processes and learning in spatial tasks. I have an engineer background with a Master in Bionics Engineer and my expertise is in the field of Neurorobotics.
I obtained my PhD in Neuroscience at the ISIR lab at Sorbonne Université, in March 2023. Then, from May to September 2023, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the MOBs Lab at ESPCI Paris to continue the neuroscientific part of my thesis research.
Since October 2023, I am teaching at the Department of Computer Science at CY Cergy Paris Université and conducting my research at the ETIS Lab.
Research activities
- Neurorobotic
- Computational Neuroscience
- Emotional models for robot navigation
- Reinforcement Learning
- Hippocampal replay
Ongoing projects
I am currently working with Prof. Lola Cañamero on robotic emotional models for spatial navigation, to investigate the role of social interactions and stress in global exploration dynamics.
